[QUOTE="okietom, post: 2349757, member: 18710"] Doing it the way you described is accurate for determining what choke you are actually shooting. A problem with shooting the paper then drawing the 30inch circle for hunting is that with a hunting gun you also need to know if your pattern is shot in the same place that you are aiming. I once had a chance to buy a single shot 12 gauge that centered its pattern a foot to the side of where the owner aimed it. This can be a problem with doubles where the two barrels don't shoot to the same spot. You need to check where your pattern is centered and how dense it is with the load you will be using. [/QUOTE]
